310. The $30K Launch Mistake That Nearly Broke Me (And How You Can Avoid It)


Listen Later

Most course creators think they need flashier webinar slides or more aggressive email sequences to boost their launch sales, but that's missing the real story. šŸš€

I learned this the hard way when I dropped $30K on ads for what I thought would be my biggest launch yet. Instead of celebration, I barely broke even and questioned everything I knew about launching. With so many online courses flooding the market, the creators who are winning aren't just packaging their expertise and hoping for the best.

They're strategically positioning their courses as the obvious solution their audience is already hungry for. I'm breaking down the five non-negotiable elements that separate launches that flop from those that sell out, whether you're running webinars, challenges, or bootcamps.

šŸ”„ In This Episode:

  • Master the "starving crowd" principle that makes selling effortless

  • Discover the SPIN selling framework for understanding audience pain points

  • Learn why storytelling overcomes real objections better than features

  • Uncover the audience nurturing mistake that cost me $30K

  • Get the "gates" strategy for moving people through your launch funnel
